It was incredibly easy and fun to make. I only have one question: what do you call it? I’ve heard so many names for it. Vote in my fun poll.
Gold mine sandwich !
bread frame
Eggs in a basket
Ova in a Land Rova
Tried these recently as well; found a plastic cup that cut the holes perfectly. Kiddos loved them.
Egg in a frame.
A kid favorite. We call it “Egg in a hole.”
Tips:
-
Use a small wine or cocktail glass to make the hole. Rotate slowly on top of a wooden cutting board. Much easier and looks nicer.
-
Whole wheat bread works great.
-
Cover the pan with a glass pot lid to control the heat. Flip as soon as the egg is opaque. Don’t worry, it keeps cooking. Otherwise, the bread cooks much faster so you end up with either burnt bread or overcooked egg.
-
Dabs of butter on both sides make the bread golden brown and crispy.
-
Also good with slices of avocado and your choice of hot sauce. Or if going sweet, cooked peaches and maple syrup.

I had no idea there were so many names for this lol.
I always heard it as egg in a nest.

There are many names for the dish, including bullseye eggs, eggs in a frame, egg in a hole, eggs in a nest, gashouse eggs, gashouse special, gasthaus eggs, hole in one, one-eyed Jack, one-eyed Pete, one-eyed Sam, pirate’s eye, and popeye.[7][8][9][10] The name toad in the hole is sometimes used for this dish,[7] though that name more commonly refers to sausages cooked in Yorkshire pudding batter.

The next level trick is to take the bread that was removed to make room for the eggs, and put cheese between them and crimp the edges with a fork before toasting that too
Pirates eye
Alabama eggs.
Because they’re in bread
